Anterior Urethral Diverticulum

Here, we describe a case of congenital anterior urethral diverticulum (CAUD) in a two-year-old boy, who presented with right inguinoscrotal swelling that mimicked a spermatic cord cyst or hydrocele. Accurate diagnosis was made intraoperatively by retrograde urethrography. Open diverticulectomy and primary urethroplasty were performed for its management. The clinical presentation, diagnosis, and the management of this rare condition is discussed.

We present the case of a 13-year-old boy with a congenital anterior urethral diverticulum. This is a rare condition in males which can lead to obstructive lower urinary tract symptoms and urosepsis. Diagnosis is by urethroscopy and radiological imaging. Surgical treatment can be open or endoscopic. Long-term followup is required to check for reoccurrence of the obstruction.

Abstract Sialidosis, a rare autosomal recessive disorder, is caused by a deficiency of NEU1 encoded enzyme alpha-N-acetyl neuraminidase. We report a premature male with neonatal-onset type II sialidosis which was associated with left ventricular dysfunction. The clinical presentation and subsequent progression which culminated in his untimely death at 16 months of age are succinctly described. Early-onset cardiovascular involvement as noted in this patient is not well characterised. The case report is supplemented by a comprehensive review of the determinants, characteristics, and the clinical course of cardiovascular involvement in this rare condition.

Caucasian Male

Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli, a rare condition of unknown etiology, was first described by Kitamura et al. from Japan in 1960. It is characterized by a triad consisting of well-demarcated erythema, hyperpigmentation, and follicular papules. We report the case of a 50-year-old Caucasian male, who had asymptomatic symmetrical facial lesions since the age of 42. His family history was unremarkable. Published erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli cases of the last 10 years are summarized in this report to demonstrate the variability and differences in the clinical presentation of this uncommon diagnosis.

Atonic Seizures

Seizures consisting of rapidly arrested movement are relatively common and account for approximately 12% of all episodes. Atonic seizure is the preferred designation for this form of clinical presentation, although more descriptive terms such as "drop attack" and "epileptic fall" are also popular. Many clinicians still use the term "akinetic seizure," but this is inaccurate because attacks of behavioral immobility with preserved muscle tone and consciousness cannot be differentiated from absence seizures. Furthermore, it is unlikely that neurophysiologic mechanisms can arrest behavior without altering muscle tone or compromising consciousness. The accurate diagnosis and management of atonic seizures constitutes an important challenge for the practicing pediatrician. Whereas grand mal and petit mal seizures are well-known manifestations of epilepsy in childhood, seizures limited to the loss of muscle tone are more likely to go unrecognized. The large variety of nonepileptic conditions that mimic atonic seizures further adds to the difficulties of correct identification. DESCRIPTION Atonic seizures show considerable variation in presentation and severity. Typically, without warning, the voluntary muscles synchronously increase and then lose resting tone. No aura precedes these muscular changes. Both the myoclonic and atonic seizure components can cause the child to collapse limply to the ground. Massive myoclonus and loss of tone may even precipitate a violent fall from a sitting position (Fig 1), resulting in craniofacial injury, skull fracture, facial laceration, or dental trauma.

Glomus tumor is a rare condition and constitutes only 1 % of all soft tissue tumor of body. Glomus tumor is familiar for its unusual presentation and long standing symptoms due to delay in diagnosis. Authors have presented the clinical behavior and treatment of 7 patients with subungual soft tissue mass. Following surgical excision, all patients cured of symptoms, at the end of follow up, no recurrence occurred; post operative nail deformity was insignificant.

AbstractIsolated cranial nerve absence is a rare condition that can be diagnosed using high-resolution cranial nerve magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Thorough clinical examination with proper knowledge of the course of cranial nerves may help diagnose this rare condition. We describe two cases, one each of, isolated congenital absence of the third and seventh cranial nerve with their clinical presentation. High-resolution T2-weighted MR imaging was done in both patients which revealed absence of cisternal segment of the right-sided third nerve and cisternal with canalicular segment of the right-sided facial nerve.
